Searching images, with thumbnails?

Anyway, I figured out a partial fix. Still working on it thought but I figured it might help others in the future and maybe someone can add to it.

I used the Relevanci plugin to index all of my images in my foogallery. Then I installed the (Get the image) plugin. After scouring the web I found and modified the following code in the search.php. (i’m still working on this)

<div class="results">
<div class="thumbs"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php if ( function_exists( 'get_the_image' ) ) { get_the_image
('width=150&height=150&image_scan=true&default_image=http://yoursite.com/default.jpg' ); } ?></a></div>
<div class="blogposts">
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> by <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>
<p class="postmetadata">Posted in <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?>  <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', 
'% Comments »'); ?>
</div>
</div>

Then I modified the style.ccs to add these lines

.results { clear: both; margin-bottom: 20px;}
.thumbs { float: left; width: 150px; height: 150px; margin: 0 10px 10px 0; }

The good news, I have an image on my search results. The bad news, only “an” image. I’m still working on this, but if I figure it out completely i’ll post it.

Last post, I fixed it. Using the following method I was able to get the full images to show!

So using Relevanssi, and Get the image plugin, it IS possible with a little work. I hope this will help someone in the future.
